Mayor tackles drug complaints with new nuisance strategy

During a recent government meeting, officials discussed ongoing community engagement efforts and public safety concerns. The city plans to gather additional input on the Veretner Park master plan during the upcoming National Night Out event, building on previous community feedback.

Additionally, the Milwaukee Metropolitan Sewerage District (MMSD) annual report was submitted ahead of the deadline, with no issues reported regarding grading or compliance.

Public safety was a significant topic, as Chief Hunter addressed complaints related to 4215 Vermont Court. He reported that the police department has responded to multiple incidents, including drug-related issues and disorderly conduct, and has issued citations. Despite attempts to contact the property owner regarding these concerns, there has been no response. Consequently, Chief Hunter indicated that a nuisance letter would be sent to the owner’s residence, urging residents to report any further complaints directly to him.
